1989 Pontiac 6000 SE review from North America
"Strong, dependable, cheap, and fast!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Left turn signal needs to be manually shut off.
Replaced muffler and rear shocks.
Replaced left turn signal bulb.
Power lock doesn't open passenger door.
Power window problems on passenger side.
General comments?
I LOVE this car! This is my first car and I find it handles great and is remarkably cheap on gas (one tank will go for 7 hours on the highway at 120/km hr!) Pretty good for a car that seats six!
It starts like a charm (and I live in Northern Canada) and has never let me down. I have put 20,000 kms on it in 8 months and it keeps on going. It's great on the highway or in the city. I too blow away the rest of the cars at the stoplight! It has lots of power and just wants to run.
I plan to keep up the oil changes, install a good stereo and keep her running. As Neil Young said, "Long may you run"
